A travel-lover from a small Russian island, situated near Japan, currently re-exploring my hometown. Being a student, I always try to be a part of all the activities happening in the university. Love meeting new people, sharing my little stories and getting valuable experience through communication.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

An opportunity Couchsurfing gives is incredible: meeting new people, learning something new about them every day, basically living together sounds simply freaking cool to me. A thread that the people would have through the site can't be underestimated.

Interests

At the moment I'm on a path of changing a career (from economics to nursery, fingers crossed!) and a country. So I'm trying to apply my interests as quickly as possible. I make videos on YouTube on education in general and a particular sphere of it. I also write articles for local Russian magazines and translate them into the languahes I know. Well, I guess, I'm a typical millennial.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite music includes practically all the genres: indie, folk, rock, etc. Generally, I'm open for new genres. Ones of my favourite films are Pulp Fiction, the Green Mile and Matrix. As far as books are concerned, I love Russian classics (Dostoyevsky and Gogol are my favourite), fairytales, psychology books, non-fiction, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lost my passport JUST BEFORE going out of USA after being there for one year. They gave me a paper that I could have more easily forgotten because of how small it was.

I also learned how to touch my nose with my tongue!!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Multiple stories about my travels, jokes and laughs. I'm very keen on talking and asking questions about other people's lives, don't be too scared. I'm still a bit of a kid.

I like cooking so I can cook some Russian dish for you if you'd like.
